Interview mit einem Filmregisseur, der gerade einen Science-Fiction-Film dreht. Könnt ihr mit der Abkürzung "EDA" etwas anfangen?

So we started from scratch and we have created an entirely new space suit on the lines that on Mars you need a circuit suit to work on which is helmeted and suited and booted basically. Then we will also develop and ***EDA***, which is what everyone calls the doughboy suit, you know the padded white suit, for the end part of the script.
